Wont shift into Forward

Lift started to struggle a bit shifting from Neutral to Forward. Yesterday It just stopped completely. Still works just fine in reverse; lifts, shifts, tilts ect. Kind of new to Forklift repair I have only ever worked on Electric Clarks. Any help would be great, where to start, tech drawings, possible problems. Engine runs great, no other issues.

I have checked/topped off all fluid levels, Tested the switch (lever) at the plug.

Liquid Propane cat engine
I think 80s/90s?

Fact of the week
At the opening ceremony of the Sydney Harbour Bridge in 1932, marching bands were instructed to walk out of step as they crossed the bridge. This unusual directive was given as a precaution due to concerns about the bridge's structural integrity during its early use.
